I was talking with the guy in charge of ordering all the waterfowl gear, decoys, etc tonight at Cabelas. He needs your input on what to order.
He needs to know the brand of decoy you like, size, etc. Model numbers and pics would help. Also what other gear you would be interested in.
He really wants to taylor the inventory to reflect what is used around here.
Thanks guys. :tup:

Which Cabelas???
-

Sea Duck dekes and the rigging set ups; 2nd the G&H
Remington & Federal steel shot #4, #2, BB, BBB (the other places carry Winchester)
-
Some snow floaters might be a good idea. I got some GHG last year that worked good. The texas rag kits with heads could be a seller.

Ditto
-
Waterfowl clothes for big guys. 3xl
-
For the guys that hunt the tides a lot any adjustable weight system. So the slip type cord stoppers might be a hit. Jerk rigs also. I didn't see any of those the last time I was in there either.
-
See if he can stock some Brant decoys, hard to find
-
GHG Divers and seaducks!!!!!!! More duck clothes in youth and women sizes as well.
-
Thanks guys, keep em coming!
-
I don't know if they are legal in BC but i'm always baffled when i see Battery opperated motion dekes on the shelves here in WA... There are several non batterie opereted options out there. I would like to see more of those...
-
Ditto on the snow geese dekes, everything GHG has and also some options for windsocks. Texas rags on the low end and silo socks. Also can they order and keep a assortment of custom calls? Im not talking about a echo laminate but some good choices from RNT, echo, saunders, JJ LARES (?!?!?!) basin, ect? And a plus one for more camo in bigger sizes, and something other than friggan advantage max4. Stuff works great for cattails and such but some darker options would be great. Buckbrush, bottomland, and cross your fingers, some shadowgrass coats and waders from drake waterfowl. Dont forget winter wheat camo for ground blinds, lots of green up there.

This might actually get me to shop at a Cabelas.

Gentleman, the suggestions have gotten through. Decoy selection is still limited but not as limited as it was. Lots of GHG and Cabelas brand. I did see some boxes of scoters. Not all motion decoys anymore. Lots of bags and calls to choose from. They are starting to catch on.
Tealer, on a side note I swore I saw you there yesterday. Made me do a double take.

Lots of love in here today. You would be hard pressed to see me in a Cabelas. I am a huge ma and pa supporter.
-
"I did see some boxes of scoters." Are they really getting that popular?, I hope not cause it's a sure sign they will close the seasonit with declining populations not turning around :twocents:.

And this is constructive how?

Not aware that I must be constructive to a retail store that does not support this site. If your looking to push Cabelas that hard may e they should pony up and sponsor the site.
-
How is asking for input by hunters on what they would like to see in the store pushing the store? People were complaining about what was in stock, so they asked if they could get input from the local hunters on what they would like to see in the the store.
-
I didn't feel like he was pushing Cabelas either. Seems like the op was just trying to help guys get the gear they want in a local store.

Tealer... I understand your need to support he mom and pop shop, but like Jeep said, how is giving them feedback a bad thing? Pick your "mom and pop shop" say Holiday Market, or Morgans Outfitter in Sedro... If one of them came on here asking what we thought they should carry that they do not should we tell them to get lost???

I think is comment was related to the reported "Tealer" sighting. RE:

Ya'll get a little touchy in the off seaon? :chuckle:
For the record, I avoid Cobela's and it has nothing to do with selection :hello:
-
My comment wasn't supporting or against Cabellas... Not touchy at all and if tealer or anyone else want to only shot mom and pop God Bless...
I think i point this out because of a run in with a resturant i had a while back, I was so pissed off i vowed to never go back. The problem was I didn't tell the MGR why i won't be coming back so there is no way for the MGR to fix the problem. :twocents:
-
Was that the Iron Skillet? :chuckle:
-
No, But thier mottos is "Great Food, Lousy Service!" I've refilled my own coffie there before, and they didn't say jack! :chuckle:
I was pissed because i got fed tap whiskey when i re-order a Glen Morangie scotch! :bash: Not at the Skillet.
-
LOL, I've done the same there with my coffee. We usually stop there on the way back from camping up river.

I have worked with Cabelas when they opened stores, in fact I was at the grand opening at the first 5 stores. They know what they are doing, they chose to ignore most comments. They always have. I try to NEVER shop at a Cabelas, hate them worse then Walmart. Every once and a while it happens were Cabelas is the only option, but I would rather shoot myself. I support shops with competitive pricing good customer service and a sense of community. Cabelas has none of these, none. I wasn't trying to bash them, I was in fact responding to a "sighting".
After two pages of comments on what they should carry that should cover it. I'd never tell anyone to get lost, but really this topic was played out. No need for a *censored* comment.
please try to keep it family viewable, thanks

Need some spoony dekes for those *censored* Everett Chit pond ducks.....
